Plus jamais
Pros:

Pas grand chose

Cons:

Tapis mal propre, poussière qui pend du plafond, 3ieme lit pour enfant au lieu d’adulte.
La vue sur arrière de l’hôtel. Les photos de l’hôtel sur le site ne sont pas conformes à la réalité. Vieille hôtel qui a besoin d’être rafraîchi et nettoyer.

Pros:

Frokost bra, mere likt en lunsj egentlig. Flott beliggenhet.

Cons:

Litt lytt mellom rommene. Noen røkte et sted i nærheten (ut gjennom vinduet?) og det sivet litt inn til meg. Tåler ikk sigarettrøyk så det var litt ubehagelig.

Nicht zu empfehlen
Pros:

Die Lage direkt am See ist gut

Cons:

Allein die Lage rechtfertigt aber nicht den Renovierungsstau. Das Hotel ist sichtlich in die Jahre gekommen und sowohl die Familienzimmer nach hinten heraus, wie die Zimmer mit Seeblick bieten wenig bis gar keinen Komfort. Die Sauberkeit in unserem ließ stark zu wünschen übrig. Sowohl die Böden im Bad wie auch im Zimmer waren nicht sauber. Es gibt keinerlei Standards die eingehalten werden. Als wir nachmittags ankamen war eine Gruppe stark alkoholisierter junger Männer Männer bis in die Abrndstunden singend auf der Terrasse, am Morgen zum Frühstück saß am Nebentisch eine indische Familie barfuß in kurzer Hose am Frühstückstisch. Hier hätte das Hotelpersonal regulierend eingreifen können. Das Schwimmbad war nur gegen eine zusätzliche Gebühr nutzbar. Im Hauskanalvideo wurde von 17h bis 18h eine Hsppy Hour angekündigt, die es gar nicht gab. Im Vergleich zu dem was wir in Norwegen sonst erlebt haben, war dies schlecht mit unangemessenem Preis-Leistungsniveau und nicht empfehlenswert.
